Quality Control

Our 2,6-Dichlorophenol-Indo-o-Cresol Sodium Salt is produced under a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets exacting purity and consistency standards. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
